TIP OF THE DAY

Is Your Rug Ready for a Spa Day?

Give your kitchen rug the pampering it deserves! Start by shaking it out like you're shaking off a bad day. Next, sprinkle a generous amount of baking soda over it.

Let it sit for 15 minutes, allowing it to soak up all those odors. Then, vacuum, and voilà! Your rug is refreshed and ready to face another day of spills and thrills.
